A homebrew 15-10 SSB Rig for the Dominican Republic:
This is my second build of this rig.
I am using a 10 pole crystal filter that I built for the first build, but did not use. I am also using the tuning capacitor from a Galaxy V's oscillator -- I like the anti-backlash gears and the reduction drive. This rig is built on a pine board covered with adhesive copper tape. It has been built stage-by-stage on copper-clad boards using the Manhattan construction style.
The structure of the rig is basically that of a BITX rig -- the RF and IF amplifiers are Termination Insensitive Amplifiers.
Soon the receiver will be completed. I will then build the stages needed for the transmitter portion of the transceiver.
I will take this rig with me to the Dominican Republic.
